Where's his luggage? Did he bring the wrong one? That shouldn't be the case; he just took his clothes out to shower last night.
He sat on the bed, trying to think, but before he could figure it out, Su Tian appeared behind him.
"Good morning, Gu Bai."
Gu Bai heard someone calling his name and quickly stood up, only to find Su Tian sitting on the bed.
"Sister..." He swallowed hard, unable to figure out where his sister had come from.
Su Tian looked at him quietly, "Hmm, did you sleep well last night? Do you remember what happened?"
"Okay, nothing happened, right?" Gu Bai said somewhat uncertainly.
Su Tian burst out laughing.
"Let's go. Your bag is still next door. Go get it."
"Okay." Gu Bai quickly went out and took out his bag.
When the two of them went downstairs with their luggage, the young driver was already waiting downstairs.
"I'm going to the state-run restaurant to buy some steamed buns," Gu Bai said, before entering the restaurant next door.
He bought twelve steamed buns and gave six to the driver, who was surprised and quickly refused, saying, "That's a bit too many."
"It's not much, just take it. Also, this is a tip for your hard work, take that too."
Su Tian took out two ten-yuan bills from her bag and stuffed them into his hand.
"Thank you," the young driver said softly.
He drove the car to the entrance of the train station, and Su Tian led them into the stationmaster's office, where they carefully discussed the delivery of the medicinal materials.
After everything was settled, the two bought train tickets and waited for the train to arrive.
Suddenly, Su Tian asked softly, "Do you know what you did last night?"
Gu Bai thought for a moment and nodded, "I know, I took a sip of the medicinal wine."
Su Tian turned to look at him, "Hmm? You were like that after just one sip of wine?"
Gu Bai said shyly, "Yes, this is my first time drinking."
Su Tian chuckled. "No wonder! What did you do last night? Do you remember?"
"What did I do? I was sleeping, wasn't I?" Gu Bai replied hesitantly.
Su Tian smiled at him and said, "You were sleeping, but you got drunk and came to knock on my door. As soon as I opened the door, you hugged me and called me 'sister'."
Gu Bai was stunned after hearing her words. Was he really that bold? He actually…
Are you an only child?
"Yes, I'm the only one. My parents found me and raised me when they were passing through the countryside."
Su Tian was a little surprised, "You were raised by adoptive parents, don't you know who your biological parents are?"
Gu Bai took a deep breath and mustered his courage to ask, "Um, sister, will you be my family from now on?"
Su Tian was surprised that Gu Bai asked her this question. She thought for a while and then nodded, "Sure, you can treat me as a friend or an older sister."
"Okay." Gu Bai was very happy. Even if he couldn't be with her in the future, being her younger brother and staying by her side for the rest of his life would be fine.
When the train arrived at the station, Gu Bai helped Su Tian board the train. After they sat down in their seats, they both closed their eyes to rest.
When they arrived in Beijing, it was already afternoon. After Su Tian and Gu Bai got out of the car, they went to the post office and made a phone call to the factory, asking them to send someone to pick up the goods.
Not long after, Li Yi arrived in the factory's truck, and they helped load the medicinal herbs onto the truck and deliver them to the factory.
When we arrived at the factory, all the medicinal herbs had been moved into the warehouse.
When no one was around, Su Tian took out all the medicinal herbs she had stored in her spatial storage in Yunnan Province.
As she rode her bicycle through an empty alley, she suddenly felt dizzy and almost got hit by a dart, falling to the ground.
Gu Bai quickly caught her and dodged the person throwing darts from the shadows.
When he looked back, the person who threw the dart had already run far away and disappeared.
He turned to look at Su Tian and asked worriedly, "Sister, what's wrong? Are you too tired?"
Su Tian shook her head, "It's nothing, I'm just a little dizzy." Gu Bai was still worried and insisted on taking her home.
"Gu Bai, why did you come out? It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
"I'll take you home first; it's not safe tonight." Gu Bai insisted on taking Su Tian home.
Su Tian's head suddenly twitched, and she felt dizzy. Was her space about to undergo another major change?
She tried to sense it slowly, and damn it, Su Tian cursed inwardly, "Couldn't they have waited until she was asleep at night before the changes occurred? Why did it have to wait until she was ambushed on her way back before the anomalies appeared?"
When Gu Bai took Su Tian home, Su Tian refused to let him go back and asked him to stay at her house for the night.
"Gu Bai, you can sleep in this guest room. These clothes are all new. You can take a shower and change before wearing them."
"Okay, thank you, sister."
"You're welcome. I should thank you for bringing me back. Here's some water on the table. Drink it if you're thirsty. I just filled it for you."
"Okay, I'll remember." Gu Bai nodded with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go back to my room now."
When Su Tian returned to her room, she tried to enter the space, but she couldn't. She could only take her clothes, take a shower, and go to sleep, planning to try again the next day.
The next morning, Su Tian woke up feeling much clearer-headed, and the space seemed to have stabilized as well.
She stepped out of the room and saw Gu Bai busy in the kitchen, with a simple breakfast laid out on the table.
"Good morning, sister," Gu Bai said with a smile.
Su Tian was taken aback and asked him in surprise, "Why did you get up so early? And you even made breakfast?"
This outfit suits you quite well.
Gu Bai said a little embarrassedly, "I go to bed early and get up early, so I went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast."
"Hehe, that's great. Now that it's cooked, let's eat together."
As they sat down to eat breakfast, Su Tian suddenly asked him, "Did someone secretly throw darts at me last night?"
"Yes, by the time I looked back, the person had already run away."
Su Tian couldn't understand it at all. Who would have a grudge against her? Could it be that those people who wanted the prescription sent them again?
Hmph, they've misunderstood them. Want the prescription? In your next life, maybe. Even if she donated it to the country, she wouldn't give it to them.
When Su Tian returned to the factory, she looked at the accounts and donated a portion of the profits to the country for scientific research in the factory's name.
Five years later, in 1987.
Meanwhile, Song Zhe, far away in the southwest, had already arranged with Su Tian and the children that they would hold a small birthday party for themselves after completing the mission.
"Old Song, the weather here is still as hot as ever, and there are a lot of mosquitoes."
"Those two spies really know how to escape. We chased them all the way from Sichuan Province to this primeval forest in Yunnan Province," Lu Yu cursed through gritted teeth.
"Yes, no matter where they escape to, we will bring them back."
In the dead of night, far away in Beijing, Su Tian, who had been sleeping peacefully, suddenly opened her eyes.
